Testimonial for Rachael Ibarra, BCD

I knew I wanted an intervention free birth with support and reached out to Rachael to help me and my husband make that a reality. For the first 35 weeks of my pregnancy I felt more and more prepared to take on the challenge. When I found out my baby girl was breech and needed to change care, Rachael rallied all her resources and took time to help us find the best fit doctor for our situation. She was a wealth of knowledge and calming words when I felt like my whole experience was about to be upended. She helped me come to terms with my eventual c section and when baby girl came a bit earlier than planned, she was there to be our rock as we navigated the scary operating room. (She took so many photos and videos I find myself looking back on weekly)

The next three months were full of other hardships that Rachael supported us though. She was the recipient of so many middle of the night “is this normal” and “what do I do” texts and always had a perfect thought out text with links and advice. Knowing she was there as a resource gave me so much comfort. I will absolutely be asking her back for any and all future children!!
